A257 (1999) 123-131 | | Subject: | gr-qc | | Affiliation: | Brown University, Providence, RI, USA and Universidade Federal do Rio grande do Norte, Natal, RN, Brazil) and L. R. W. Abramo (Brown University, Providence, RI, USA | | Abstract: | A nonsingular deflationary cosmology driven by adiabatic matter creation is proposed. In this scenario there is no preinflationary stage as happens in conventional inflationary models. Deflation starts from a de Sitter spacetime characterized by an arbitrary time scale $H_{I}^{-1}$, which also pins down an initial value for the temperature of the universe. The model evolves continuously towards a slightly modified Friedman-Robertson-Walker universe. The horizon and other well known problems of the standard model are then solved but, unlike in microscopic models of inflation, there is no supercooling and subsequent reheating. Entropy generation is concomitant with deflation and if $H_{I}^{-1}$ is of the order of the Planck time, the present day value of the radiation temperature is deduced. It is also shown that the ``age problem’’ does not exist here. In particular, the theoretically favored FRW flat model is old enough to agree with the observations even given the high values of $H_{o}$ suggested by recent measurements. | | Source: | arXiv, gr-qc/9606067 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
